Thick,
patchy fog caused some
flights at Lindbergh Field to be
delayed, canceled or diverted
Monday night. The fog is mainly contained to the county's
coastline, the National Weather
Service said.

Airport officials said the fog
began impacting airport operations about 7 p.m. They did not
have an exact number on how
many flights were affected, but
the airport's flight status board
showed about two dozen flights
either canceled or delayed, including four in which fog was
specifically cited.

The fog has been rolling in
and out throughout the night,
allowing some flights to land
and others to take off, officials
said.

The weather is expected to
begin clearing about 10 p.m.,
forecasters said.
